He always supported Israel... I think the 'until' is in reference to Israel's more recent and more blatant attack on Gaza - prior to that, Biden's support for Israel wasn't nearly as flagrant as it is now.
Like, no one would bat an eye if I told them I support my wife's decisions, but if she started breaking into the local NICUs and stomping on people's babies, my continued support for her decisions would be a tad sus. ...especially if I regularly said "honey could you tone the baby-stomping down a bit?" as I handed her a new pair of baby-stomping boots.
I'm not a both-sides'er (unless I'm talking to a trumpanzee in an attempt to steer votes away from Agent Orange). My vote is going to Biden and I encourage anyone reading this to do the same, but our complicity in the genocide on Gaza is genuinely upsetting, partly because it's complicity in a fucking genocide, and partly because this WILL cause voter disengagement and could hand that other dipshit the presidency on a silver platter.
Thank you for putting this so well.
The genocide started way, way before October 6th. October 6th was a reaction to increased aggression from Israeli settlers who had massively increased the amount of land they were stealing. The difference is that it was more subtle, so nobody cared, but if you forcibly remove everyone from their homeland it's still genocide.
Obviously I'm glad Americans are waking up to the realization that Israel is an apartheid state, but it's been true for decades. The fact that Biden has always been a Zionist was a huge red flag, but he was "the only person who could beat Trump" and now we're stuck here.
You're saying that about a guy who has been saying shit like "I am a zionist" every year while sucking Israel's dick. LOL.
You're just showing that you have 0 idea what you're talking about and that your opinion is only based on your fantasies, reality does not seem to be of interest to you.
